Dr Venkatram Thalapalli - Perthes Disease treatment at Banjara Hills
Perthes disease, also called Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, is a childhood condition that affects the hip joint. The hip joint consists of two parts - the femoral head (ball) and the acetabulum (socket).
This disease occurs when the blood supply to the femoral head is temporarily disrupted, leading to avascular necrosis or the death of bone cells.
Perthes disease usually causes a painless limp and mild thigh or knee pain, and if left untreated, it can result in further hip problems due to the deformed femoral head.
